<PRE><B>Question 541703</B>
the distance traveled by both is same when one catches up with the other.										
Let them meet at distance x										
Train A  	speed=	60	mph		, starts at		01:15	pm		
Train B  	speed=	80	mph		starts at		01:30	pm		
										
Time difference  between the starting of the two=			0.25	hours						
										
Time taken by  	Train A  	=	X  /	60						
Time taken by  	Train B  	=	X  /	80						
										
X  /	60	-	X  /	80	=	0.25				
										
LCD -	240									
Multiply equation by 	240									
240	/	60	x-	240	/	80	x=	0.25	*	240
4	x  	-	3	x	=	60				
1	x  	=	60							
/	1									
x=   	60	miles								
Train A  	speed=	60	mph							
Distance =  	60	miles								
Time taken =	60	/	60							
Time taken =	1	hour 														
They will be together at	02:15	pm
